❖Caution: Saving a format with errors in it may cause major problems when you later try to load the format. Pressing the Save or SaveAs button does NOT error check your entries. You should check your edited format for errors before sav- ing it.

Pressing the Save button saves your format the name and memory location shown at the top of the screen. unless you started with an EPROM resident format. In that case, you will be prompted for a new name. See the next paragraph for saving with a new name.

If you wish to keep the original version of the for- mat you started with, press the SaveAs button to save your work using a new name. A window will appear showing the name and a list of characters you can use for the new name. The top knob moves a cursor through the name being edited and the bottom knob moves a cursor through the available characters. The Clear button clears the name being edited. The Delete button removes the selected char- acter in the name. The Insert button adds the se- lected character in the character list to the name at the current cursor location. Press the OK button when you are done changing the name. You can now press the “SaveAs” button.

Pressing the Exit button leaves the format editor and returns the 801G* to normal programming op- eration. If there are any unsaved changes, you will be asked if you want to save your work before ex- iting.
